VEF-UTA Fellowship Program sponsored by Vietnam Education Foundation - $256,280This is a program that provides 5 years of funding to VEF scholars who elect to attend UT Arlington.During the first two years at UT Arlington, including the Fall, Winter/Spring, and Summer terms, VEF provides to the University a VEF Fellowship Grant of $27,000 (USD) each year for each scholar. This Grant amount is in lieu of all required School application fees and deposits; tuition and required fees for the academic year and summer session; required health insurance for the year; required books and educational equipment each term; and normal graduate stipends for 12 calendar months. The graduate stipend provided to the VEF Fellow by UT Arlington shall be sufficient to cover all living expenses as well as all required books and educational equipment for each term. Support during years 3, 4, and 5 of the grant period: VEF provides to each VEF Fellow at the School a professional support grant of $3,000 (USD) per calendar year during the third, fourth, and fifth years, or until graduation whichever comes first. This grant amount is intended for the VEF Fellow?s personal and direct use to support his/her intellectual and professional pursuits. During these three years, or until graduation whichever comes first, all other financial support for the VEF Fellow comes from UT Arlington in the form of graduate assistantships and/or other resources of the School.read more...
